I've been asked that question by some people who see me putting Mobil1 oil in the engine, and rear diff., babying the truck, garaging and polishing it. I plan on keeping this truck for at least 100K miles barring any unforeseen major problems.
How about everyone else?

Until I am ready to buy another Nissan truck probably. I really like the Z too. I would say between 60-70 K.

Probably keep my truck 'til the next generation of Titans come out, then upgrade. Really like the new Z. Maybe 2 Nissans in the garage!

You have read my mind.

Keep my truck at least 80,000 miles until the next generation Titans. I am also interested in the upcoming Tundra, curious to see what it will look like and what will be under the hood.
I would like to complement my Titan with another Nissan car, well an Infiniti. I like the Nissan Z, but I really like the G35 and M35.

My extended warranty is good up until 100,000 miles. After that I would trade it in. I know a guy with a 1995 chevy 1500 pickup that is rusting and he has expensive problems that reoccur every year for the past 3 years. I typically repair my vehicles if not covered under warranty but the Titan engine/transmission might require special tools and expensive parts for repair. Heck, changing the transfluid is by yourself is diffucult without the right equipment. There is a point were you have to stop and get another vehicle. In the long run it makes sense to keep your vehicle but with technology gains they might have a hybrid Titan that is faster and receives better mpg's. I believe that this truck will last well after 100,000 miles but I budget new vehicles every 5 years. Maybe I'll keep the Titan and get another vehicle at the 100,000 mile mark.

My last truck (91 chev 1500) had over 250,000 miles on it when I gave it to one of my sons last year. It's still going strong everyday.

I intend to get at least that mu :D ch out of my titan.

Waiting for a hybrid 4 x 4 SUV/TRUCK!!!!

I really want a hybrid 4 x 4 suv/truck.........like the one Toyota is working on.Wish NISSAN would and hope they are doing the same thing. I don't care if it only saves a little fuel........I do like the hybrid technology and have tried many hybrid cars and talked with many owners of them......all are happy. So I might have my current Titan for a year or two.......maybe more. My T100 gave 6 good years of service and I was hoping for the same with the Titan.......but if gas goes above $3/gallon I might have to get a second vehicle like a Subaru.....and keep the Titan in the carport. For now I'm enjoying the ride.......more than any other vehicle I've owned!!
Peace-Tom:cheers:Bass Ale:cheers:

I had planned on keeping it for the long haul, used mobil1, modded it out, even put new tires on a couple weeks before I ended up getting rid of it at 22,000 miles (9 months) - (fortunately I kept my new tires, stereo & speakers, and a few other odds & ends). Got tired of replacing the rotors every 3 months. I wonder how the new owner likes the radio fade, of course He might not notice cause he's *****ing that the window doesn't always go up when you hit the button.

200,000 miles or 15 years
I'm with you there, I will keep it as long as it will run.
My last truck had 176,000 miles, and had never failed to start in 8 years. I only got rid of ti because it was a standard cab and I wanted a crew cab.
